Aside from medication, what helps you?

I eat wholefoods, no sugar, no fast food, no junk. I am physically active and I use lots of medical marijuana.I cook with it, make with iced tea with it and also smoke it. I don't take anymore psych meds, haven't for a few years now and I feel much better all the way around. The pot helps me when I can't sleep, it's a good pain reliever and I am fortunate to have a couple of doctors who totally support my use of marijuana for medicinal purposes.

A whole bunch of stuff has helped. I can't think of them all right now, but here's a few:

Sunshine
Exercise
Creative visualization
Volunteer work
Sleep hygiene
Clean diet
Reducing exposure to mass media
Willingness to try new things
Self-acceptance
Neuro Linguistic programming
CBT
DBT

I posted a list of things in how to get off your medicine in the s forum. Check it out. Among the things listed were

mild exercise, celiac and alkaline diets, reduction of sugars and fats, yoga, breathing or pranayama, meditation, vitamins, fish oil, staying away from bad things, detox, being around healthy people, staying away from docs and religion, laughter, any good relationship

The kinda drugs that are illegal LSD, psilocybin mushrooms, mdma, and marijuana have helped me much more than any psychiatrists have.

Coping skills that help : yoga, high-intensity cardio, art, singing, eating well.

EXERCISE! EXERCISE! EXERCISE!

Music and masturbation. (not at the same time though).

Also, physical exercise and healthy eating. (IE healthy body helps you to have a healthy mind, but can't really fix everything, just helps a bit.)
